## About the Role

Machine Learning: 3-5+ years of experience in machine learning, data science, or applied AI

ML Frameworks: Demonstratable expertise in Python, Tensor Flow, or similar

Broadband WiFi Expertise: Solid understanding of Wi-Fi standards (802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax/be), broadband gateways, mesh networking, extenders, TR-369/USP, TR-069, telemetry models, and jome Wi-Fi KPIs and RF fundamentals

Analytical Skills: Strong analytical skills and the ability to work with noisy real-world data.

LLM: Experience with LLMs applied to networking or technical support automation

## Description

* Develop ML models for:
 * Wi-Fi performance prediction and classification
 * Anomaly detection in home networks and CPE telemetry
 * Root-cause analysis for subscriber connectivity issues
 * Optimization of channel selection, band steering, mesh/Extender behavior
 * Traffic pattern clustering and QoE scoring
 * Build scalable pipelines for feature extraction, data ingestion, and real-time inference using cloud-based or edge-based architectures.
 * Evaluate and experiment with modern AI methods (e.g., deep learning, time-series forecasting, reinforcement learning for Wi-Fi optimization, LLM-based agents for support flows).
 * Work with broadband gateway telemetry (TR-369/USP, TR-069, proprietary CPE metrics, Wi-Fi driver outputs).
 * Analyze RF/Wi-Fi metrics such as RSSI, SNR, PHY rates, airtime, retries, congestion, DFS, client steering data.
 * Develop models that operate effectively with sparse, noisy, or delayed CPE telemetry.
 * Collaborate with firmware/hardware teams to define required CPE telemetry and event streams.

Systems Integration & Deployment

 * Integrate ML components into production systems via microservices, cloud functions, or embedded edge processing.
 * Work with large-scale datasets (millions of devices) to build reliable, high-availability intelligence pipelines.
 * Contribute to data-modeling standards and analytics architectures for broadband and Wi-Fi products.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

 * Partner with product managers to define ML-driven features for home connectivity, QoE scoring, and customer-support automation.
 * Work with engineering teams to ensure models are feasible across cloud, controller, and CPE environments.
 * Communicate results and recommendations to technical and non-technical stakeholders
 * Participate in an on-call rotation for after-hours / weekend production incidents
